I thought England were going to try and restrict Pirlo, he has all the space in the world and time to do his thing.

Welbeck is doing great so far, would like to see Sturridge and Rooney more involved in the play, other than that I'm pleased with the performance so far.

On freeview, go to channel 301 to have Radio 5 commentary. The picture is shocking though.
I've got sky plus, a bit late to get a freeview box to watch this match.

Easiest solution is to sub Phil at half time for Thierry or Rio.

Phil is contractually obliged to say only four words at a time.

I feel like Phil is just reading a very long and boring story about nothing.

Is it just me, or does Rooney look really uncomfortable out there.
It's almost like he just can't get into the game, or he just can't get use to the conditions.

Can BBC just swap Phil Neville for someone who doesn't sound like there commentating a history programme, we can all just pretend we didn't notice ?

Welbeck, sterling and Henderson have been your best players. Not seen much from Rooney or Gerrard

Rooney terrible as usual. Roy needs to get Sterling into the wide areas the Italian's don't have natural FB's and they're struggling with Welbeck. The one time Sterling was out left he beat his man and put in a great ball.

Welbeck and Sterling causing them all sorts of problems on the break.

Rooney has barely featured.
